Serbia shrinking rapidly. Down 25% in future since 1990

Perhaps plummeting fertility(among other factors) is Gods way of smiting an ungrateful peoples who commit abortion. Thereby, cutting their lineages at the root, and replacing them with others(whom have growing fertility rates). Just a thought. I have noticed countries that practice abortion have plummeting fertility, not only because of abortion, but also due to growing medical issues that leave people barren or unable to produce.

Im not against abortion anymore, women that choose abortion would most likely raise a child in a single parent household which statistically leads to a unproductive member of society.

I think even more than a abortion crisis, we face a crisis of the nuclear family in the west.

I will happily offer myself up to an ethnic Serbian woman of child-bearing age and move there and help to repopulate the country.

Apparently this trend is all over the Balkans. The least effected by 2050 based on current projections are North Macedonia(3% loss), Greece(3% loss), Montenegro(5% loss), Kosova(11% loss) and Albania(18% loss). The rest are projected to lose 20-40% through emigration/drop in fertility/older age being the average median etc. The youth are realizing their nations have nothing to offer besides fear, poverty, and nationalism.

Not sure if Slovenia counts as Balkan given its geographic position. However it is the only one with a 3% increase by 2050.

With regards to Serbia(given this thread):

losing 1/4 or 1/3 population naturally in Balkans might be most sorry thing to happen there. Compare it to the parts of Asia/Africa where the rates are doubling every 80 years

That as well. I mean, I don't believe in forced anti-abortion laws. People have their rights of course. More on a personal basis. I am against it but would never take away a persons choice. I just think God deals with these types in his way. Which is why I say just let them make their choice. I agree about the nuclear family going out the window though. People have placed higher status on wealth and position than what actually makes a family. People these days are married to money, and don't want children or the responsibility of looking after their own.

If a man seeks success and money, its a good thing.
Women do the same these days, is the problem.

Yup. Bulgaria is taking the biggest hit. Inching toward half of the population. Whilst not including in the chart or reference, Moldova is projected to lose about 48% by 2050.

This will open the floodgates for migrants in the future, either from western countries to leave their mark, or eastern countries. Either way alot will change going forward.

Oh of course. Seeking it is a good thing. Succeeding in the attempt a very different thing. If money is the only thing that matters though, there is no family once its lost and things change. I know people who were once wealthy that lost it all and vice versa. This shouldn't affect a family structure if it is a true family.

This is just tragic. Not just regarding Serbia but everyone in the region. I guess it's similar to how the Balkans were before the arrival of Slavs, so the circle is in some way complete

[Pribislav]

The young generation go to West in this region.

Yes.

That is bigger problem than birth rate.

When in western Europe start war between natives and Muslim imigrants than Balkan imigrants will return to their counties.
